OK Zdenko. But do we have some sample code to use tesseract functions in c application.

It's literally one of the main items in list of wiki pages:

https://github.com/tesseract-ocr/tesseract/wiki/APIExample

Is it me, or is this a growing trend on this mailing list? E.g. people just firing off emails with completely open questions instead of doing a minimal effort to search or read the documentation.

Sorry for using you as an example Pooja, I just feel like this has become a problem and should be addressed.

I feel the same.  I see many effortless questions. Can we do something?

@ElGato and &Rele, sorry if my question bothered you both. But the link which has been sent is not for C language, it is for C++.
I already go through that link before writing to the Forum. And after surfing only i post to the forum.

Thanks Zdenop,
I missed this part as it is at the end of the link. Thanks for the link.

Like Rele said, I just used you for example, too.  The problem is the whole situation.

I encourage you to keep going.  People will help you.  I'm not an expert of C or C++, either, but I imagine you can do something from the C++ sample.  Then it'll be much easier and even be fun.

Please suggest ways we can improve the situation.

Is the documentation difficult to find? Difficult to understand?

Is there a way that a FAQ type of page with relevant links be automatically sent to first time posters in this Google group?

Do Google groups allow a pinned post to show on top which could have same type of info?
